FAQs

Everything you need to know before getting started with Futurebytes programs
View All
Do students need prior robotics experience?

No. Each program is designed for a specific age and skill level. Beginners start with Explorer, while more experienced students can join Designer or Engineer.

How are programs different from each other?

Each level increases in complexity — from basic building and control to advanced mechanical design, programming, and competition-style challenges.

What skills will my child develop?

Students build engineering thinking, logical reasoning, teamwork, problem-solving, and hands-on STEM skills through real robot design and testing.

Are these programs suitable for future competitions?

Yes. Especially the Designer and Engineer programs prepare students for VEX Robotics competitions and advanced STEM pathways.

Is programming required?

Programming is introduced gradually using visual block-based coding, with optional exposure to advanced concepts at higher levels.
